    Yep, my first attempt at using charcoal!
    Hence, my goal wasn't completely capturing what was going on on the original pic,
    I just wanted to make it look nice. :p
    Same reference pic Sally used for her painting, I noticed that when I was about halfway... :(
    These are Rick Wright, Dave Gilmour and Nick Mason...
    I named this after one of my favourite Floyd songs!
    My scanner kind of fucked it up though :(

    Tools:
    -Charcoal
    -Eraser
    -Fixative
    -Reference picture (http://www.clapton.addr.com/PinkFloyd/RickNickDave.jpg)

    Sorry for the size...

    I hope you like it!
